Ufficialmente, il 23 agosto 1939, 86 anni fa, il patto Molotov -ribbentrop fu firmato a Mosca – divisione dell’Europa tra la Germania nazista e l’Unione Sovietica e posare le basi per la loro collaborazione.

Reminder that soviet’s aim to have Europe burn wasn’t anything new.
The very rearmament of Germany which was underlying cause of yet another war so soon after The Great War is a massive soviet russian undertaking which they were quite open about:

> The foreign policy goal of the Soviet Union was set forth by Joseph Stalin in a speech on 19 January 1925 that if another world war broke out between the capitalist states, “We will enter the fray at the end, throwing our critical weight onto the scale, a weight that should prove to be decisive”.[14] **To promote that goal, the global triumph of communism, the Soviet Union tended to support German efforts to challenge the Versailles system by assisting the secret rearmament of Germany**, a policy that caused much tension with France.
The amount of support was extensive.

Then after Hitler got to power, despite all the pretense how soviet russians were supposed to be anti fascist, they’ve earnestly supported them once again and openly celebrated the alliance, provided massive amount of resources which were needed for invasions after Poland: Norway, Benelux, France etc and even Soviet Union itself, cooperating their secret police forces and lending Naval War Base:

On top of it is massive gaslighting soviet russians engaged, telling their Belarusian and Ukrainian “brothers” that they are their protectors, yet murdering them left and right:

Using famines instrumentally for genocide wasn’t isolated case:

Un-ironically this is the only peace of paper that russia/soviet onion didn’t break, only because Germany betrayed them first.
Post this to r/ussr to see the meltdown.
“Muh libruls always cooperate with fascists!”, yet it was the communist Soviet Union who signed a pact to divide Europe with Nazi Germany.
Hopefully, we have learned from history and are wary of the danger of secret arrangements between authoritarians posturing a fake opposition.
*think back to the Trump-Putin meeting and start worrying*
Part about Soviet Union getting Finland didnt age well
As a Serb, who was always bombarded with Sovet/Russian Propaganda they are still coping about Winter War.
How Stalin showed them mercy and only took couple of cities, like they didn’t want to take entire Finland.
The problem with nazi russia is that it has never been defeated like nazi Germany.
